Simple logging

import logging
import tg_logger

# Telegram data
token = "1234567890:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
users = [1111111111]

# Base logger
logger = logging.getLogger('foo')
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)

# Logging bridge setup
tg_logger.setup(logger, token=token, users=users)

# Test
logger.info("Hello from tg_logger by otter18")

Flask logging

from flask import Flask
import tg_logger

# Telegram data
token = "1234567890:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
users = [1111111111]

# Flask app setup
app = Flask(__name__)

app.logger.setLevel(logging.ERROR) # flask logger
tg_logger.setup(app.logger, token=token, users=users) # bridge setup


@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    return 'Hello, World!'


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

TgFileLogger example

import tg_logger

# Telegram data
token = "1234567890:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
users = [1111111111]

# TgFileLogger example
tg_files_logger = tg_logger.TgFileLogger(
    token=token,  # tg bot token
    users=users,  # list of user_id
    timeout=10  # 10 seconds by default
)

file_name = "test.txt"
with open(file_name, 'w') as example_file:
    example_file.write("Hello from tg_logger by otter18")

tg_files_logger.send(file_name, "Test file")

FQA

How to create a telegram bot?

• To create bot use official BotFather bot (descibed here)

How to get token and user_id?

• Bot's token is shown after new bot is made
• To get user_id use special bots (e.g. @userinfobot, @JsonDumpBot)
